I sailed an ocean,
unsettled ocean
Through restful waters
and deep commotion
Often frightened,
unenlightened
Sail on, sail on sailor
I wrest the waters,
fight Neptune's waters
Sail through the sorrows
of life's marauders
Unrepenting,
often empty
Sail on, sail on sailor
Caught like a sewer rat
alone but I sail
Bought like a
crust of bread
but oh do I wail
Seldom stumble
never crumble
Try to tumble
life's a rumble
Feel the stingin'
I've been given
Never endin'
unrelentin'
Heartbreak searin'
always fearin'
Never carin', perseverin'
Sail on, sail on, sailor
I work the seaways,
the gale-swept seaways
Past shipwrecked
daughters
of wicked waters
Uninspired,
drenched and tired
Wail on, wail on, sailor
Always needin'
even bleedin'
Never feedin
all my feelin's
Damn the thunder
must I blunder
There's no wonder
Woah. All I'm under
Stop the cryin'
and the lyin'
And the sighin'
and my dyin'
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
Sail on, sail on sailor
